The beauty group recently celebrated its newest milestone with a grand gala held at Shangri-La The Fort, Manila

No one can really quite transform a ballroom into an elegant gala quite like Avignon Clinic. After all, the night served as a celebration of beauty, success, and confidence with the company welcoming its newest milestone—The Most Beautiful coffee table book, from the makers of MEGA Magazine. It’s surprisingly the first publishing entry from its beauty category, but what makes it truly special is the wide collection of inspiring stories from different muses who want to make a meaningful impact.

“Avignon Clinic has the pure intention of making people feel more confident about themselves,” CEO Christopher Cachuela reminisced. “We ignite a spark of change within oneself for us to become the best version of ourselves.” It’s one sentiment that resonates with the book’s core message: The idea of beauty goes over and beyond appearances. It’s about self-growth, reaching dreams, and overcoming adversity. 

A night to remember

Colmenar.

Over dinner, guests witnessed the beauty group’s ambassadors impart inspiring words about beauty. “True beauty radiates from within, and you are most beautiful when you believe in yourself,” said Sam Milby. “So embrace your uniqueness and exude more confidence because it’s this belief that will empower you to make your dreams a reality. Inside and out, be your most beautiful.” Alongside, the night also witnessed live performances from Radha, John Rex, and Zephanie.
